convenient number one. no. 2 is a long ballot there are 11 state propositions. people go to both make up their mind ads on certain issues at different times. i think they like to keep their ballot around their homework and research. >> off also we expect 1 million fewer voters then in 2008. >> are you surprised by that? >> i saw that by the field poll. i am not surprised based on our ballot return we know will be slower than four years ago. >> you say with a mail in ballot there's a problem. signatures may not match as opposed to coming in. >> if they have to be about 8:00 election night. wednesday morning for the most part for giving the reds star does is close to the post office and picked up trays of boughs that cannot be counted. 678 may be as many as a thousand. no. 2 they have to sign the box on the envelope because we will check that against their voter registration form. no. 3 you have to compared not match. some

77 for downtown san francisco later this afternoon 80 over in fairfield. declined to 84 in livermore. anyone in redwood city. 79 in hayward. your kron 4 7 day around the bay forecast shows fog returns especially to the coast as we head into tomorrow. thursday and friday umbrellas out because shower is widespread around the bay. morning fog and afternoon sunshine dry conditions and to the weekend. temperatures climb slightly as we start the next work week. >> right on cue the san mateo bridge starts to back up for the west bound ride. the drive time to now have 15 minutes. i think within the next 20 we could see that climb. starting to see heavier traffic all around the bay area. especially in the east bay. south bay

freeways are getting busier. we are not tracking hot spots the we are looking at a little slowing around 92 and 84 and 101 on the peninsula. the north bay would ride has climbed over to 30 minutes from novato to would ride has climbed over to 30 minutes from novato to the north--golden gate would ride has climbed over to 30 minutes from novato to the north--golden gate that's elizabeth. and that's skyler... and his mom, nancy. they're just a few of the californians who took it on themselves to send you a message about what they need to restore years of cuts to their schools. prop thirty-eight. thirty-eight raises billions in new revenue - bypasses sacramento and sends every k through 12 dollar straight to our local schools... every school. for them. for all of us. vote yes on thirty-eight.

we are back in is 714 and in talking about sinc2010 decision

2012. the biggest proposition is the one involving our schools and a lot of people. michael yaki here. a lot of people taken to the polls to teach their children about how to vote. there is about $120 million being spent on these three collections. 30 is governor brown's tax measure and-fast to save cut to the k-12 system. there is another proposition average person does that put on her thing for a great day-12. --k-12.

>> i think the poll showed that proposition 30 is close it depends on the turn out. i think it has a very good chance of passing. proposition 38 has a much harder road to climb because the advertiser and has not started to the last weekend. before people were trying to make up their minds both of these are aimed at increasing funds for school. what is the difference. >> 30 best-proposition 30 is a combination of income tax increase in sales increase. there is a limit on how long the income tax increase is on 30. it is specifically to stave off budget cuts that are cut by the deficit from grades k-12. proposition 38 is only through gate grades kk-12. there is some issue about what commercial

proposition 38 sang this one is separate from the legislation and and only goes to great k-12. in terms of the democratic machine proposition 30 has much higher up to its best. the way proposition 30 was written if both proposition passed proposition 30 will win. >> as we see people going to oppose the started earlier this morning and not in california for the last 15 to 20 minutes. the race is said and done in large part because that is in some e- mail in ballots as well. >> that is one of the interest in things that is why you cannot wait too long to actually put your campaign in gear. people more and more are going to absentee. two reasons. is much more convenient. to in a state like california people like to do other things. this is on of election day. we like to go out and part of the voting

machines for republican and democrat is put your vote in now and then get going and call out on a g old tv weather is a nevada arizona or people are driving and flying to the east coast. a good number of people are not in the states that are campaigning elsewhere. >> you say that there are some things that people will be voting on today that did not get as much attention as you would like to highlight. >> from someone who used to be a local elected officials there are racists where people only care about these. yes there is a big presidential race. there is a good universal people for whom there are things on the ballot for themselves that make a big difference. an alameda we have a big race to replace an idea locklear. you have races fliers going out in san jose city council

races. you have money been done in three supervisor races in san francisco. district 15 and 7. the new have some congressional races. or you have to democrats are two republicans running and you have one in the east bay between pete stark and eric starwell. it will be interesting to see how that plays out. they're a lot of local things people will be keyed on. >> 7:19 a.m. is the time if you would like to connect with michael yaki you can follow him the twitter at gawky block or his block michaelyaki .com. you guys were talking about proposition 30 in governor

>> waiting for governor brown to come out and speak his inside voting at his polling locations and oakland. the live and listen to the governor as his is the to speak in the next few moments. >> 7:38 a.m. and bay area news three women were arrested in the death of an infant and a san raphael care facility. san rafeal please call october 23rd that an infant was not breathing at the magic for a place children center. the boy died at the hospital and autopsy found that the baby was suffocated by betting. three caregivers were arrested yesterday. there were charged with involuntary mons manslaughter. of three women are in jail.

the san as a principal charged with failing to report a teacher suspected of molesting several female students and a limited school has been found guilty. he is in jail the teacher. he is awaiting that steps have the principal alerted sooner they may have been at least able to save one bit. >> when you have a responsibility of hundreds of children in your care you cannot afford to drop the ball off and and and for the moment like that. it was just, she got horrible advice from hr and she did not do what she knew she should do. she had the job she did not act on it. >> she will face she could have faced up to six months she was his conviction of one single misdemeanor so she now has a $100 fine and 100 out of committee service. >> let us go live to governor jerry brown who just finished voting in oakland hills. i'm still

going to have to maintain physical that steps fiscal discipline. >> have to be responsible including budgets and the years ahead. >> i think one of the most significant things of course is the secret money that came from arizona. this is the largest anonymous contribution and things have gotten worse. when i was secretary of state i sued the three oil companies for $95-to-$95,000 an anonymous donations now it is up to 11 million. that a serious violation i'm sure there will be an investigation extensive investigation going for. to find out exactly what it all to the donors. here is donors withdrew several committees. now in addition to that of course you have the budgets of millions of dollars and i

would say that it will be hard to get money out of the ballot proposition business or even out of the campaign. the only answer will have to be more social media, more union involvement, more civic involvement, more ordinary people giving their small donations adding up to many millions of dollars to counteract those of you just write checks for tin or 20 or $30 million. >> yes i voted yes. one never knows and sent to were still voting i want to respect their choice on election day. i think everything i can tell the notion of taking their quarter percent sales tax and asking those were the top 1% to help was out in

our time of need i think that is a proposition that speaks for itself. i would not be a bit surprised if the outcome was even more positive and most of you are probably expecting. >> tell us what your priorities have been the tone of the measure you will be watching. >> i will be watching for president obama is very important in times of health care in terms of and other investments. it would make a big difference. yes i am hoping that the president does well and that is a big issue because it is been a hard-fought campaign. i think there are two choices. just like proposition 30 are we going to vote to expand opportunity and use the public sector. the big issue is can people through their institutions of government do great things or can really do it to the private sector. there has to be a

balance. this election is either more toward me and mine and the what i can do for myself or what can i do for myself with my neighbors with my fellow citizens and investing to our school district to our counties, to our president and congress into the legislator. >> the big issue the question is what is the capacity of america to invest through its collective institution called the government. a lot of people thi is only run by scoundrels and fools. and other people say wait a minute here we have our flaws but so does every other institution in this society. it is the only one where we come together to take care of the basic stuff throws for example. if you go down the street we need to have some road repair. if you look at our school as you will realize that is for our kids off if you look at all the other

things america does have to take care of business. i think that that is a big issue. >> you have seen governor brown telling us how he voted this morning. his budget for californian has a $6 billion hold on it he could not get the registered started to raise taxes so he put proposition 30 on the ballot. very will follow the latest with the governor and be back for more alexian coverage as kron 4 news continues.

public universities which leads to possible tuition increases and your glasses. proposition 38 is a competing proposition that insures the money will the schools. proposition 30 only does that for the first year. the one with the most votes when it both pass. here is governor jerry brown walking to vote in oakland this morning. the governor speaking shortly thereafter. showing his support for proposition 30 as the as the cameras in the state for much backing his opposition which is a big part of the california budget. >> and other parts of the country we have all kinds of obstacles to voting from whether with sandy power outages. here we have a nice beautiful easy day. i erica. >> good morning daria today's the last day of record-breaking temperatures. it will be another gorgeous of plenty of sunshine. the cooler start to morning we have lingering ford is in the north bay. into the

afternoo guys temperatures in the '70s and '80s. it will be cooler compared to yesterday's. into the evening hours it will turn. here's a look at numbers. 58 in san jose now. the same goes for oakland. concord you are at 53. 57 in san carlos. >> thank you erica. we continue to monitor slow traffic at the bay bridge. also at the san mattel bridge for the west bound ride. not as bad as the last time we checked. i am no longer calling it a hot spot. however a check shows that we have a fair amount of heavy traffic. most of the east bay freeway is running at full load. south bay is heavy at 28085 and 101. moderates a heavy conditions for the peninsula. the same for the month bay with the ride on 101 southbound will take you

about 40 minutes from 37 to the golden gate bridge. >> thank you george 8:05 a.m. is the time and our into the voting in california. will tran will cover cover at the costa county voting place. >> it is a board to drop off your mail in ballots today if you do not do it to day walkout tomorrow. people were waiting outside as early as 6:00 a.m.. they did not know that it opened up at 7:00 a.m.. people are anxious in this area to turn out and vote because they felt it was important obviously for them to have the vote counted. keep in mind this is the first year in california for the general a election where will have more mailing ballots the people actually coming take a look at your screen we have bullet point

for you if you are one of those people are sitting on a mail in ballot at this time. keep in mind you have to drop off at a polling place in the polling place by 8:00 p.m. tonight. if you mail it to day it is postmarked today they will get there it according to the people of the registrar's office they say no it does not matter it has to be in their hands by tonight. we talked to them at 7:00 a.m. they said one of the most heartbreaking things in terms of running an election is to stop by the post office to borrow and come back with nine or 1000 ballots that basically mean nothing because they cannot be counted and it turned in to recycle paper. you have to come in and here is this gentleman that is turning out. the see of it to talk to him. >> sir we are with channel for why did you mellon ballot as opposed to coming over there and voting a person? >> honestly, i just had a

family at home and business to run. i do not always have time to stop the business to come in and do it that way. >> how come he did not met last week? >> i actually did i got back because i forgot to sign it. >> in a rush and for it to the simplest things. >> thank you so much so now you're vote should count he is marking it off. everything is all systems go for this gentleman. perhaps it is the best thing to do for you to drop off so you can get it personally looked at by the people at the office to say yes and no your good to go. if not they will sing you and give you a pen and you sign it. your signature has to be similar. it doesn't have to be exact as in previous elections. it has to be similar. >> what did the registrar to stimuli this morning? he said a lot of people forget the signature seems simple people forget. and there was a guy. >> i have proof which it saw him he had to commit. it tried to mail it it did not work he got it in here at

least he can do better. by the way he forgot to get one of these stickers. people want to drop by to get a i vote sticker. thankou y will. the time --we will be back.

the importance a cycle ohio and florida here's a look at orlando on the left-hand side. on the right we have blue-ohio. you can see the long line that voters are facing. in many precincts they have to wait from one to four hours to cast their votes. we're lucky here in california the voting going smoothly. so for our weather is great. we have no sense to deal with. power outages flooding are any glitches that cause the polling places to back up. we will keep you posted throughout the morning on election night with the results. the results will be coming into kron 4 started to 8:00 p.m. and will last until the results comment. you can't see results on our website www.kron4.com facebook and whether we will be back with more in a moment.

we have our kron for political analyst ykis. is its new soon to say that- michael yaki. the numbers will come in very fast. is possible you can see certain trends. first states will come in will be on the

eastern seaboard in hampshire, virginia and florida. that will really be whether or not it will be long or short night. in terms of the presidential race. we'll have all local coverage here. the east coast polls closing at seven we will get the results coming in. which do you look for more or i'll 4 as the one that a bit of that record. >> i think the first one is virginia. those polls close at 7:00 p.m. to as 4:00 our time. the numbers to come in about 7:00 p.m. or 9:00 p.m. our time. if virginia is trending towards obama it will be a good night for the president. it is not in will be a lone night. the event for president obama is he has many more pathways to get to 71 that mitt romney does. if for example he does not when virginia it is ok. but on the other hand a lot of romney pathways require florida and virginia. you have to see that as it flows over when

ohio comes in and that will be the real test. >> the mathematicians have broken down it looks like there are 400 or more ways for obama. when you look at what the formula and what it would take it is limited. >> it is a much more limited pass at it and realistic pass a very few options as compared to president obama. >> compared to zero, that special while they have more provisional votes. those to not have to be fully counted until the resisted. is it possible this could drag on. >> for two things at a possible with all i want if the race is somewhere between 100 and hundred 52 logic thousand to the two then yes the provisionals will make a difference because it would depend on how they break that could make consequence on the final outcome second if they finish close between 15,000 so that as the automatic trigger for a recount in ohio. my gut feeling is we may not get their but i do not know, what do i know?

giving more than the average joe. >> if you are a romney supporter this is what you're thinking. you are hoping that the polls are skewed that they are not measuring the actual intensity of your turn out. you had better get out to vote operation mccain did in 2008 that involved in to help the trend line to different. what you're seeing is all the polls are broken toward you the last week. the basically if you look at every single poll that's come out 95 percent of them have obama ahead one or two. in at least all the swing states. for you is a question of turnout. forgetting those people suppose. it is the same adage people may say i liked this candid i am going to vote for him but the real question is are you actually going to get to the polls about the ballot and get out of both. you can take the horse to water but

that you have to make him drink. >> when we talk about physical obstacles and helping voters get to oppose it is ok to stick them on buses and dry them. like they have to do back east because of sandy. they have power outages. i think was 800 polling places have no power without is down to 100 that is a lot of people. >> and even for seniors for long lines of warm weather makes a big difference. there are questions of interpretation if you are in a live at 7:59 p.m. or they obliged to keep it open even if the polls supposedly close at 8:00 p.m.. there are basically about 5000 places all of the country with the papers being ready to submit because they understand and people are trying trthat it was the polls at the last minute. depending on how long the line to our it depends on how long the polls will be

opened if the states. >> important toemember that for want the popular vote by 1000 votes but lost the election. the only possibility is if obama was an electoral college and romney was a popular vote. it is probably because of two factors if that happens because of democrats turn out and york and new jersey. and a lower turnout in california because of wanting to win. >> will check with michael route the evening he will be your starting at 54 our election coverage. you can connect with him through twitter his handle its adyaki block. a reminder of our coverage that is it kicks in at 8:00 p.m. when the polls was start to close and then we will stay updated nonstop coverage all night. and go to our web site www.kron4.com this book and sweater. >> the weather is nice route the bay area.
